What are Centimeter and Megaparsec

Definition of Centimeter

A centimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equivalent to one hundredth of a meter. It represents a standard measurement often used in everyday objects and is denoted by the symbol 'cm'. Its usage spans multiple fields, from furniture dimensions to scientific measurements, providing a convenient scale for shorter distances.

Definition of Megaparsec

A Megaparsec, abbreviated as Mpc, is a colossal unit of length used in astronomy. It's equal to one million parsecs or approximately 3.26 million light-years. This unit helps astronomers express the vast distances between galaxies and other celestial objects. The vastness of the universe becomes more comprehensible when using Megaparsecs in cosmic measurements.
